Campo alle Comete Rosato DOC 2022

Campo alle Comete Rosato DOC 2022 is a refined and expressive rosé from Bolgheri, Tuscany, an area best known for its world-class red wines but increasingly gaining recognition for elegant, structured rosés. Campo alle Comete, a boutique estate blending tradition with innovation, crafts this rosato using Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah, resulting in a wine that combines freshness with depth.

The 2022 vintage experienced a warm yet balanced growing season, allowing for excellent ripeness while retaining the bright acidity essential for a vibrant rosé. Gentle pressing and cool fermentation in stainless steel preserve the purity of fruit, creating a wine that is crisp, aromatic, and full of Mediterranean charm.

Appearance: Pale salmon pink with brilliant clarity, reflecting its refined, Provençal-style character.

Aroma: The nose is fresh and fragrant, with notes of wild strawberries, white peach, and pomegranate, interwoven with delicate floral hints of rose petals and orange blossom. A subtle touch of Mediterranean herbs and minerality adds complexity.

Taste: Light to medium-bodied, the palate is refreshing yet silky, bursting with red berry flavours like raspberry and redcurrant, balanced by zesty citrus undertones. A fine minerality runs through the wine, adding texture and structure, while crisp acidity keeps it lively and elegant.

Finish: Long and clean, with lingering notes of citrus, red fruit, and a delicate saline freshness that enhances its vibrancy.

Food Pairing: Campo alle Comete Rosato DOC 2022 pairs beautifully with seared tuna carpaccio drizzled with olive oil and lemon, where the wine’s acidity and fruit profile enhance the dish’s delicate flavours. It is also an excellent match for a summer Caprese salad with burrata, tomatoes, and basil, complementing the dish’s fresh and creamy elements. Best served well-chilled for maximum enjoyment.
